Hi, everyone!
I stream video in Microsoft Edge in window capture mode. Intel(R) HD Graphics. Windows 10, 64bit
I tried to run as admin, in compatibility mode, streaming by OBS Classic and OBS Studio, changed the settings "inner window"
As result - black screen.
Help, please!

If application (Edge browser) using hardware acceleration then try to disable it in program settings.
If application is Metro app (UWP/Store application) then you cannot capture it with current build of OBS Studio by 'Game Capture' or 'Window Capture' sources.

With hardware acceleration disabled you can capture Chrome window, for example. Also, most known are FireFox and Opera browsers. If you need only the Edge, then try 'Display Capture' source and cut unneded parts by the cropping.

No, Edge browser has no setting 'hardware acceleration' such as Chrome.
As things turned out, MicrosoftEdge is MetroApp. I hope in future builds it will be possible.
Thank you!
